Check
21: Business Accounts

Check 21 went into effect on October
28, 2004. Like most changes, it is part of an evolution. The changes will
be gradual, and those organizations that are best prepared will benefit.

Check 21 opens new doors. Never before have there been so many payment
options. Every day, new image technology and electronic payment services
are being developed. Make the choice yours. Review your current payment
applications. Consider new payment services that may offer you greater control
and efficiency.

But most of all, be informed. While none of us can predict the future,
we do believe that Check 21 will impact how you collect and disburse in
the future. Huntington's goal is to help you prepare your organization for
Check 21, and beyond! To that end, we have included additional information
that will assist you in identifying the challenges and opportunities in
this changing payment landscape.
